You can just mount the hard disk and store the sources there (If it's not there already).
Also, you don't lots of RAM, we're just compiling the boot loader, not a full buildworld.
On a sidenote, you can compile world with low RAM, it just takes a bit longer
(I compiled FreeBSD 6 on my P1 133 / 32MB laptop).
